[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 505473, member: 13558"] Sorry for your loss, you are going through so much. When I was reading your post I thought the same thing, I admire you so much for not letting difficult child emotionally blackmail you through the grands. I also admire you for not making the girls take sides. I have never cared for the drama and as I get older I will not tolerate it at all. I am the last one in the family to find out about what is going on. I have some close family members that love it I guess because they don't try to solve the problem, then they wouldn't have the drama to entertain them. I think it is good that Nichole has some contact so you can keep up with the grands, their saftey comes first. RM I am getting there too and my sister just doesn't understand, she thinks I should drop everything and run to rescue difficult child so I don't discuss difficult child with them very much. She still tries to run her adult married childrens lives and it is having negative effects on her health. "The hardest thing to admit though is that I really do not want him in my life anymore. It is just too hard watching that train wreck over and over again. Some members of my family think I am cold hearted. I know better, and it hurts that they think that. So, I no longer try to explain myself, it is what it is. The fact is when the pain is too much to bear we block it out. It is a survival mechanism and I for one I am thankful for that ability" [/QUOTE]
